Santander Bank offers convenient online banking, allowing customers to manage their accounts anytime, anywhere. One key feature is the ability to register and use Zelle for fast and secure money transfers. Zelle is a peer-to-peer payment service that lets you send and receive money from friends, family, and others using only their email address or mobile phone number.
Integrating Zelle into Santander Bank’s online banking system simplifies transactions, eliminating the need for third-party payment apps or platforms. Customers can easily access Zelle directly from their online banking account, making transfers seamlessly and securely.
Santander Bank frequently offers attractive promotions for new checking account customers, including Santander Select® Checking, Simply Right® Checking, and Santander® Private Client Checking. These offers may include bonus cash when meeting specific requirements, such as maintaining a minimum balance or making direct deposits within a certain timeframe. However, the terms and conditions of these promotions can vary by time and geographic location.
To qualify for bonus cash, customers must ensure they meet all requirements stipulated by Santander Bank. For example, some promotions require customers to enroll with a specific promotional code when opening an account. Additionally, the account must remain in good standing and meet eligibility criteria until the bonus is received.
Santander Bank clearly defines what types of transactions are considered qualifying “Direct Deposits” for bonus eligibility. Qualifying direct deposits typically include salary, pension, government benefits (such as Social Security), or other recurring monthly income electronically deposited into your checking account from an employer or the government. However, over-the-counter deposits, wire transfers, debit card transfers, ATM transfers, online and mobile banking transfers, person-to-person transfers (such as Zelle® or Venmo), or pre-paid debit card payroll providers do not qualify as direct deposits.
